IE just won't connect...

[ridds]

Hi there, first post from me.

Great forum here found it really helpful over the last few weeks.

I've become a little stuck with my connections recently. I managed to flash my phone with the WM6 upgrade when I first got it and all was good, 4GB Micro Card, TomTom 6 all working with GPS etc. However, I tried to upload some corrupted maps for TomTOm and had to Hard reset my phone.

Now, since this I've had grief with my connections. I've finally managed to get these working again and I can connect to Windows Live and download my hotmail with both WiFi and GPRS connections. However, Internet Explorer just won't work. I've tried forcing it to use WiFi with the phone shut off, doesn't work. Tried it with GPRS with WiFi off, doesn't work either.

When I try to browse to an address it just pops up "Cannot Connect with current connection settings" I've tried all sorts now and I just cannot get it to work. I have "this network connects to the internet" checked in Proxy settings.

The only thing I have noticed is I have a load of connections under Internet Sharing which are no longer current yet they are still there.

Any help gratefully received! ;)

You could just make a backup of everything and hard reset. I know thats a bit harsh, but it always works. I usually don't resort to that as a first, but give it a try.. just make sure everything is backed up to ur storage card and synced w activesync/wmdc. any questions, dont hesitiate to pm me

Cheers, just done that now and checked PIE worked fine before doing anything else.

All groovy now. Very odd it did what it did.:confused:

Yeah, with ATT/Cingular here and after a month or so I can no longer connect to much. I either install a new rom or do a hard reset and all works after. I don't know why it craps out for a bit then works good on a re-install. Once my device is set up I don't change much on it. strange, but not that big of a deal as I flash the new releases rather frequently.
